Next: Updating files with convert-ly, Previous: Invoking lilypond, Up: Running LilyPond
The scripts (such as lilypond-book, convert-ly, abc2ly, etc.) are also included inside MacOS X .app. They can be run from the command line by invoking them directly, e.g.
path/to/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin/convert-ly
Alternatively, you may add this directory to your path. Modify (or create)
a file called .profile
in your home directory such that it contains
export PATH=$PATH:path/to/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin
This file should end with a blank line.
Note that path/to will generally be /Applications/
.
This page is for LilyPond-2.8.8 (stable-branch).
